I have to admit, though, horsemen seem to be very creative in trying to find easy solutions to riding problems. I still think it's mostly a matter of "practice makes perfect," but if I device does no harm and actually helps, then so be it.

Where do you find this stuff? lol! I've been reading along and I just LAUGH. People really buy this? Couldn't you save a buck and tie some string or even twine in place of that? Amazing (shaking head)Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Thank you for entertaining me all year long!!

Wow, except for it's merits as the perfect gift for a frenemy, this really is an awful invention!

How are "steady hands" tied to the saddle any good for a horse?!

IMHO A "steady" hand is not immobile at all! A steady hand must have a steady connection from bit to hand and not from hand to saddle. If the hands are sort of "fixed" to the saddle, the rider has no chance of giving and "letting out" the neck movement.

With that "Aid" the horse will most likely get a tug to the mouth with every step. Really great invention. *sigh*
